Does anyone remember how we were all screaming out for another decent winger in the 17/18 seasons?
They got in Tomlinson to do that role, didn't work, but now hes looking very settled down back where he belongs
We looked like we had miffed it, and then comes in this long haired bloke from the West and we could not have picked up a better Wingman
I love him

I have never been 100% convinced that Oliver has the team-first mentality to take us to a premiership. My mind has changed. To go all-in and sign so early in a season when we promise something but haven't delivered yet shows he not only wants us to get there but is willing to bet his career on it. Lovely.
I know Clarry, not super close but enough to know him
I can’t ever see him leaving this club, he loves the club and loves the boys and I can’t see that ever changing

Man I always rated OMac so highly, Keilty used to tell me he was one of the hardest blokes to match up on during training. Always used to really upset me to see him being s**t on by our supporter base
But watching him tonight filled me with a lot of joy, as well as some anger about how our club treated him
Go well Oscar and I hope you have a dominant year

If we don’t [censored] turn this around after the half ?

Any footy lovers would have known how powerful a defender May was at the Suns
When we picked him up everyone was very excited for what he could bring to our club
By his own admission he had a horrid last year mostly due to his own poor preparation (and to be fair, moving to a new city and having your missus leave you soon after would poorly effect everyone)
But this year he has shown us all just how great a player he is
He might me my favourite player now
AA for sure.

Was it just me or did Preuss look like a pretty decent ruckman?
He also has been, just got kept out of Norths side by Goldstein and our side by Gawn, which is why so many were surpised when he decided to come to Melbourne other then another team with less ruck stock where he'd get a lot more Senior games.

If we kicked straight it could have easily been another 40-50 points
Well played boys, I’m not angry this time

How the hell are we winning this
I’ve been a fan of Goody for a while and even defended him a lot but it’s starting to really hurt watching this horrible play, even I might start calling for his sacking

Dropping Oscar doesn’t make sense to me, thought with him the team it allowed May and Lever to play their roles a lot better

Nervous as hell for this
Realistically we should win comfortable, irrespective of the ladder position, given the 2 teams form the last month but part of me thinks we’ll stuff up this game too

That was incredibly frustrating
I’m angry but we were [censored] for 2 quarters and still almost beat one of the best teams in the comp so ill take it

Hell yeah boys how good was that

I think the most disappointing thing was we had some very impressive passages of play. Some of those plays that led to goals was 2018 Melbourne.
To drop off from that in the second half and lack in so many other areas hurt to watch.

How did we lose 3 quarters of football and still manage to win?
That was infuriating

Bloody glad to see you’re still here D! Hope Dec and you all are doing well. Go Dees!
Cheers mate
Decs doing well, but has been missing footy a lot. In fact he has missed it so much he thinks he might go back to Casey next season.

Boys if he can stay un-injured he will be a massive boost for us. The dude can definitely play some damn good footy. So happy for him.

I posted this else where but thought it deserved it’s own topic
Well boys, we knew this day was coming a long time ago and we've come to terms with it. Truth is Dec was a bit over football anyway, to be putting in all that blood, sweat and tears to not be playing regular senior footy isn't easy.
That being said, the family and I will be forever grateful to the Melbourne Football Club for giving Dec the chance to live out his life long dream, and he got that chance on a sunny afternoon at the MCG. Not only that, but they won a close game, and himself having an impact on that result (his centre clearance for those who remember) He and us will never forget it.
To everyone at Demonland, since I first started posting here 5 years ago when Dec started playing some decent footy at Casey, thank you for all your kind words. I have had a great time being able to share this experience with super passionate supporters which are sometimes hard to find. I have sincerely enjoyed the conversations and experiences I've had over the years and I'll be sure to pop back in ever now and again as I now and will always bleed Red and Blue.
Dec's career wasn't the most glamorous by any stretch but only a very small percentage of people who ever play our beloved game get to say they played in the AFL.
Cheers everyone, and have a drink on me!

A note from Drunkn
in Melbourne Demons
Posted · Edited by Drunkn167
Thought I’d give a little update on Dec for anyone interested
This season he is playing at our home town of Moe as a development coach/player
Back into his true position as a key defender and has killed it in the first 2 games
On Saturday they played Maffra in Maffra and won 69-26. Moe haven’t beat Maffra away in over a decade
He was dominating so much they sent a defensive forward on him but it didn’t work, he took a huge number of defensive and intercept marks and was a big reason Maffra only kicked 3 goals for the game
Moe picked up a few good players this year including ex Giants and Carlton player Kristian Jaksch. Should have a good crack at the premiership this year
He has floated the idea of possibly returning to Casey in the VFL next season so I will keep you updated
Carn the Dee’s!
